dent Scott Corner said he wanted to jump in the helicopter like Jason Bourne. Unfortunately stunt jumps weren’t permitted. The helicopter’s arrival had a more serious purpose. The reason for all this showmanship? Drive home an important and meaningful message pertinent to tweens and teens today. The Air National Guard crew encourages all students to be respectful, be a team player and avoid harmful substances. Students in Marina’s technical and Project Lead the Way courses were the first ones to actually sit in the chopper during their scheduled class times and the rest of the students were given time during their lunch break to visit the aircraft and talk to the crew.

arina Village Middle School students had the unique opportunity to watch an Air National Guard Black Hawk helicopter land on the school field last week. The entire student body, along with students from neighboring Lake Forest Elementary School and neighbors lined the fences watching this utility machine circle the field and descend into a graceful landing before their eyes. “Very cool — once-in-a-lifetime experience,” said eighth-grader Jordan Lindemann.

Dawn Hodson Staff writer Amid much anguish and gnashing of teeth, the El Dorado Irrigation District Board of Directors unanimously approved a $42.7 million project Feb. 22 that’s been on EID’s to-do list since 2011. Called the Folsom Lake Intake Improvement Project, EID plans to replace the existing pump station that has been in service since the late 1950s and considered to be at the end of its useful life. The casings are corroded, water demands are growing and the companies that originally provided the pumps have n

Kids prepare speeches, prepare for life Sel Richard Staff writer

tudents at Millerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hill School in Latrobe learned valuable skills at the recent 16th annual Speech Round Robin. All 88 fourth- through eighth-grade students presented speeches in hopes of being selected to move forward to participate at the Pioneer Union annual Festival of Oral Interpretation this month. The students started by writing speeches on a topic chosen by their teacher, incorporating research and quotes. Then retired teacher and volunteer speech coordinator Bruce Meredith met with students for a total of seven sessions, focusing on presentation and techniques for public speaking. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s winners included sixth-grader Caiden Evans, who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a problem with the public speaking part. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like getting up in front of people,â&#x20AC;? he said. His speech was titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;How Kids Can Make A Differenceâ&#x20AC;? and focused on his personal experience of welcoming two young, adopted siblings into his family. Fifth-grader Patrick Pinjuv gave an entertaining take on the different ways people express gratitude. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I noticed the difference between an adult having gratitude and a kid having gratitude. I found out that adults may tend to overthink it,â&#x20AC;? he said as he expounded on a 3-yearoldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reaction to being given a paperclip. And eighth-grader Joe Callaway gave a speech on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wandering Aimlessly,â&#x20AC;? admitting that he finds public speaking difficult. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is somewhat stressful,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a pretty good experience.

gone out of business, making it virtually impossible to find replacement parts. The Folsom Lake intake provides approximately one-third of EID’s water and is critical to supplying El Dorado Hills customers with water. In its place EID proposes to remove existing pumps and casings and construct four new submersible pumps and intake structures that will supply 19.5 million gallons per day to the El Dorado Hills Water Treatment Plant. The project will incorporate a temperature control device with intakes at three different elevations, construct a new medium-voltage electrical and switch gear area, upgrade existing electrical room deficiencies, add an additional surge tank for pump and pipeline protection and add functional workspace and parking for operations. Granite Construction Company will carry out the work at a cost of $35.56 million, construction management will be handled by Carollo Engineers at a cost of $1.65 million, construction engineering services will be provided by Black & Veatch at a cost of $652,158, geotechnical material testing services will be provided by Blackburn Consulting at a cost of $169,599, biological monitoring will be provided as needed by GEI Consultants at a cost of $54,901, storm water pollution prevention plan monitoring and reporting will be provided as needed by BT Consulting at a cost of $30,600, the cost of capitalized labor is put at $660,000 and a contingency fund of $3.88 million is included for a total of $42.7 million. Actual in-water work is expected to begin in August with the project expected to be complete by fall 2021. The new pumps are expected to last 50 years according to Senior Civil Engineer Jon Money. The cost of the project will be partially funded by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation that previously agreed to pay for the temperature control device at EID’s raw-water pump station. The bureau originally agreed to contribute $3 million to the project. Later that amount was increased to $4.3 million.

Staff said they are continuing to work with the bureau to revise its contribution given the actual cost of the device is estimated at over $7 million. The bulk of the project cost will be funded by a bond issue of $75 million that EID General Manager Jim Abercrombie said he expects to present to the board for their consideration in either April or May. Abercrombie said the bond issue will pay for the Folsom project as well as other critical capital improvements. Money said delaying the project risks a $1.2 million yearly escalation in its cost, the unavailability of contractors and less competitive bids, risks to the water supply to customers primarily in the El Dorado Hills area if the pumps should fail and additional costs associated with having to rebid the contracts. In the discussion that followed, the board expressed considerable reluctance to approve the spending of so much money. “I scared my dog when I got the memo (about the project cost),” said Director Alan Day, adding that he thought the bids reflect how busy contractors are right now. “Can the agency pick a more opportune time to carry out these bigger projects?” he asked, adding that having to pay so much was a “tough pill to swallow.” Abercrombie responded that putting off big projects would mean paying more later. Director Pat Dwyer said the agency also had to pay more for remediating Forebay Dam in Pollock Pines. President George Osborne wondered if the agency could save any money on the project now given that water levels in Folsom are low because it’s been a dry year. He said the contractor costs should be less on the underwater work. “Let’s bite the bullet and do it,” he said. Attorney Tom Cumpston, who previously served as EID’s general counsel, said the project has been needed for over a decade. “It was in the 2011 CIP and cost $40 million,” he reminded the board. In the end the board members agreed, voting 5-0 to proceed with the project.

rezone to add a planned development overlay zone to the underlying RE-5 zoning. After discussion the rezone was approved, 3-2. More than half the project, 65 acres, consists of open space. The developer plans on maintaining the oak woodlands, schoolhouse and pond currently on the property. The site would also feature 25 acres of vineyards. Citing gridlock on neighboring Green Valley Road and dangerous conditions on adjacent side streets, many area residents firmly opposed the project. Dozens attended last Tuesday’s meeting, including Michael Stettner, a neighboring resident who said his street is already overburdened with speeding drivers. “I respect all these plans and studies that have been done but I live on the corner of Malcolm Dixon,” Stettner said. “I’m that crazy guy yelling at everyone to slow down. I’m afraid that’s going to become even more of an issue as more homes come in at the top of the hill.” Frequent animal crossings, narrow bridges and sharp curves — most notably the “S curve” just south of the proposed development — on Malcolm Dixon Road concern Sarah Broadbent, whose grandchildren live in the neighborhood. “When there’s a bicyclist in front of you, you have to follow that bicycle for a very long time,” she said. “People get impatient. It’s a very dangerous road.” Omni Financial spokesman Craig Sandberg said the project could improve traffic circulation in the area thanks to a connector to Malcolm Dixon Road. El Dorado County Department of Transportation Director Rafael Martinez indicated that while the project’s “level of service” traffic parameters are in line with regulations set by the state of California, that may not be adequate for rural El Dorado County residents used to little to no congestion. “When I moved here from Southern California, my (view) of the roads here in El Dorado County was amazing,” he said. “Now, after living here for six years, I get held up at the signal for more than 10 seconds and I’m like ‘ugh, I’ve got traffic.’ I can understand that perspective. “... Unfortunately, as a municipality and a staff, we can’t negate a project if the thresholds are set by the highway capacity manual or the state of California aren’t passed.”

Some community members told the board they think they have fallen victim to a bait-and-switch after supporting the less-dense Diamante Estates only for the previous developer to sell the property to another developer that has a different plan for the site. That issue and traffic concerns irked District 4 Supervisor Lori Parlin as well. “This project, in the big picture of the county, is a tiny project,” Supervisor Parlin said. “But it’s huge with all the issues around it and the way that we got here. “The community had to work really hard to get Diamante and that’s a project the community is really happy with. It fits; it has traffic circulation that makes sense. And that was a hardfought battle,” she continued. “Then you get happy with that, thinking it’s coming sometime, and then a new developer shows up and we’re in battle mode again … Where will it stop?” While sympathetic to neighborhood traffic concerns, District 3 Supervisor Brian Veerkamp said he wouldn’t oppose a project that’s in line with the county General Plan. The project would be a benefit to the county’s funding and housing woes, he added. “This county is under an extreme housing crunch,” Supervisor Veerkamp said. “We’re a property-tax generating county that requires at least a minimal amount of growth to keep things going.” Some community members questioned the necessity of the project’s vineyards and trail. The vineyards would require maintenance, attention and possibly a vineyard manager, according to county Agricultural Commissioner Charlene Carveth, who added that as proposed the vineyards would be too broken up to produce many grapes. The board moved to leave the trail’s future in the hands of the developments homeowners association. Sandberg indicated that both the vineyards and trail were part of an effort to make the project more aesthetically and recreationally attractive, but are not a deal-breaker. After a motion from Supervisor Parlin to deny the project failed, Supervisor Veerkamp moved to approve it. The project, with minor additional conditions, passed 3-2, with Supervisors Veerkamp, Sue Novasel and John Hidahl supporting it and Supervisors Parlin and Shiva Frentzen opposed.

Kevin Christensen Staff writer A resilient Oak Ridge High School girls basketball team showed grit on the court Friday night in the capital city, but in the end could not topple a dynasty from Stockton. The No. 3-ranked Lady Trojans lost to the No. 1-ranked St. Mary’s Lady Rams 56-45 in the Division I Sac-Joaquin Section championship game at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento. Coming into the anticipated contest Oak Ridge was ranked No. 17 in California (59th in the nation). St. Mary’s entered the title game with a gaudy No. 2 ranking in the Golden State (8th in the nation). The win gives the Rams their 13th consecutive championship in Divisions I, II and III as part of the Sac-Joaquin Section. Tied 12-12 after the first period and trailing by 10 points at half, the Trojans were well within striking distance the entire game. In the end overcoming a second period drought that saw the Rams outscore Oak Ridge 16-6 and the championship pedigree of St. Mary’s proved to be too much for the Trojans on this night. “We kept the game within reach and were just not able to get the run and punch we needed,” Trojans head coach Steve White said. “They play tough defense and contest shots.” The Rams shot 49 percent from the field to the Trojans 34 percent and hit 4-of-11 (36%) from beyond the arc while Oak Ridge went just 2-of-16 (13%) from the three point mark. The Trojans turned the ball over 19 times to 15 for the Rams. St. Mary’s bothered Trojan shots all night recording six blocked shots. Trojans sophomore guard Teagan

Oak Ridge sophomore guard Teagan Brown dribbles past a St. Mary’s of Stockton defender in the Division 1 Sac-Joaquin Section finals at Golden 1 Center Friday. Brown led Oak Ridge with a double-double recording 18 points and 13 rebounds. Sophomore forward Kamryn Mangels added 10 points for the Trojans. Standout center Amaya Oliver patrolled the paint and went 8-of11 from the charity strike, totaling 18 points for the Lady Rams. Nia Anderson controlled the tempo at point guard, giving St. Mary’s 10 points. White said a key injury was a factor and foul trouble plagued the Trojans in the title game. Oak Ridge had multiple players with four fouls entering the fourth quarter and senior forward Erica Ingram was playing through a serious ankle sprain. “Erica was on crutches all week and we did not know if she could go tonight,” White commented. “She really gutted it out tonight.” The underdog Trojans finished the regular season 24-5, winning the Sierra Valley League with a 9-1 record entering Friday night’s

game. St. Mary’s came into the evening as favorites going 22-4 overall with an unblemished 10-0 record in the Tri-City Athletic League. Led by seniors McConnell, Lauren Helwig (guard) and Erika Ingram (forward) all year, the Trojans lost this battle, but the war is not over. Oak Ridge will continue its season at the California Interscholastic Federation State Basketball Championships in the upcoming week in the Northern California region. “I am proud of how the team came together this season,” White added. “Megan (McConnell) all season was the epitome of how we want to play and never gives up. Lauren (Helwig) was a leader for us all year.” Oak Ridge, who lost to St. Mary’s in the Division I title game in 2014, will have to wait another year to take down the St. Mary’s dynasty — unless they meet again in the state championships.

homeowner input and claimed Four Seasons has been deemed exempt from payments due to a double 50% discount for its age-restricted status and the fact that only one side of the development touches the park. Williams told Village Life he thinks the CSD is in violation of Proposition 218, an amendment to the state Constitution which he states in a letter to the CSD “limits local government taxation authority by requiring voter approval and providing residents with the power to repeal or reduce any local tax, assessment or fee by use of the initiative process.” The letter also indicates, “Special assessments may be levied only when specific benefits ‘above and over’ general benefits are identified and substantiated by quantified evidence with the burden of proof on the agency.” Regarding the proposed park’s special benefits touted by the CSD, resident Bonnie Bergner affirmed that many of them already exist within the Heritage Village development. “We have open space, tennis, pickle ball courts,” she said, also mentioning that views of the park can only be seen from Carson Crossing Road. “Our lots are not situated so we can see the park.” Williams said he would like studies done on traffic and safety impacts as well as see the assessment put to a vote. “We just want the CSD to be fair and equitable,” he said, noting that a public park should be paid for by the public, in general, not a targeted group. If the CSD does not attempt resolution with Heritage Village homeowners, Williams assured he “will file a formal appeal.” Resident Bernie Cesario said he’s worried a public park in the midst of the senior development will have repercussions far beyond a rise in his property tax. “With the building of a public park right in the middle of our community that safety and security will be jeopardized,” Cesario claimed, citing crime, loitering, homelessness, drugs and the possibility for senior abuse as elements that a park may bring to a vulnerable population. “And the worst thing of all is that we’re being told to pay for this.” Thirty-year El Dorado County resident Elena Brown complained the assessment was done prior to Heritage Village homes being built, but not disclosed upon purchase. “It is abuse that they could push this on us,” she said. And resident Steven Ross summed it up for his community when he said, “Why should people living in Heritage pay for a park that is not desired?” CSD General Manager Kevin Loewen speculated that part of the confusion was due to the assessment fee being delayed until a certain threshold of homes were built within Heritage

Construction has begun on Heritage Village Park but some in the senior community oppose paying a related assessment. Village. “They’ve been in there for two to three years and then the trigger was met to build (the park). That’s when we activated the LLAD, thinking that it was the nicer approach,” he explained. “As for the assessment share going to residents or the developer, the standard practice is that the built homes and homeowners pay into the assessment,” CSD Director of Parks and Planning Tauni Fessler told Village Life. Regarding possible vagrancy and crime within the park, Loewen maintained that this has not been the case for the area. “We don’t have those issues to date in El Dorado Hills,” he said, adding that residents are being charged the maximum amount because no reserves have been funded. “This is the first time that they are being assessed,” Loewen explained. “It’s a new fee. It’s sticker shock.” Fessler also assured that the CSD will be alert to any criminal activities generated within the park system through a daily presence by staff as well as multiple evening and overnight visits by hired park security. In response to the claim that Four Seasons is exempt from fees due to a discount, Fessler explained, “Four Seasons residents are not included in the Carson Creek Heritage assessment district at all. Although it would make sense to have had the Four Seasons residents included in the assessment district for the public park, when that subdivision was mapped there must’ve been either a specific reason or an oversight on the part of the county and/or CSD.” Fessler also indicated assets were generally listed as “including but not limited to” when identifying improvements in the parkland dedication agreement. “A summary of improvements is listed in the engineer’s report; however, listing every asset is not an effort within the report, but rather left as reference to the plans and specifications, which were reviewed and approved across multiple public meetings of the CSD,” she said.

Home is where the heart is...

ome can be defined for a lot of people as a place of sanctuary, that special location that can lift your spirit and/or calm your mind. This amazing estate is the essence of home.

Building on the original structure of solid cement block, reinforced rebar and a stucco finish, the walls create an almost room to room soundproof environment.

Nation’s pending home sales ascend in January Quintin Simmons National Association of Realtors WASHINGTON, D.C. — Pending home sales rebounded in January, ticking up following a decline in December, according to the National Association of Realtors. Only the West region reported a minor drop in monthover-month contract activity, while the other three major regions each saw pending home sales grow. Year-over-year pending home sales activity was up in all four regions and thus up

nationally compared to one year ago. The Pending Home Sales Index (PHSI), nar. realtor/pending-homesales, a forward-looking indicator based on contract signings, grew 5.2% to 108.8 in January. Year-over-year contract signings increased 5.7%. An index of 100 is equal to the level of contract activity in 2001. “This month’s solid activity — the secondhighest monthly figure in over two years – is due to the good economic backdrop and exceptionally low mortgage rates,” said

Lawrence Yun, NAR’s chief economist. “We are still lacking in inventory,” he said, noting December’s and January’s combined supply was at the lowest level since 1999. “Inventory availability will be the key to consistent future gains.” Pointing to data from active listings at realtor.com, Yun says the year-over-year increases show a strong desire for homeownership. Markets drawing some of the most significant buyer attention include Fort Wayne, Ind.; San Francisco; Sacramento; Lafayette, Ind.; and San Jose. “With housing starts hovering at 1.6 million in December and January, along with the favorable mortgage rates, among other factors, 2020 has so far presented a very positive sales climate,” Yun said. “Moreover, the latest stock market correction could provide exceptional, even lower mortgage rates for a few weeks and that would help bring about a noticeable upturn in the coming months.”

Nation’s new home sales strong at start of 2020 Elizabeth Thompson National Association of Home Builders Sales of newly built, single-family homes rose 7.9% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 764,000 units in January, coming off an upward revision in December, according to newly released data by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the U.S. Census Bureau. The monthly number is 18.6% higher than the January 2019 rate and the highest monthly sales pace since July 2007. “The January sales pace matches what builders are saying in NAHB surveys — builder confidence is strong and low interest rates have fueled singlefamily housing demand at the start of 2020,” said Dean Mon, chairman of the National Association of Home Builders and a home builder and developer from Shrewsbury, N.J. “Warm weather in many parts of the U.S. meant an early start to the home buying season,” said Jing Fu, NAHB director of forecasting and analysis. “Meanwhile, the months’ supply has fallen to 5.1, indicating additional housing inventory is needed.” A new home sale occurs when a sales contract is signed or a deposit is accepted. The home can be in any stage of construction: not yet started, under construction or completed. In addition to adjusting

Multifamily builder, developer confidence remains unchanged

Housing production shows solid start Total housing starts decreased 3.6% in January from an upwardly revised December reading to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.57 million units, according to a report from the U.S. Housing and Urban Development and Commerce Department. Meanwhile, overall permits surged to a 13-year high. The January reading of 1.57 million starts is the number of housing units builders would begin if they kept this pace for the next 12 months. Within this overall number, single-family starts decreased 5.9% to a 1.01 million seasonally adjusted annual rate. The multifamily sector, which includes apartment buildings and condos, increased 0.7% to a

Confidence in the market for new multifamily housing remained unchanged in the fourth quarter, according to results from the Multifamily Market Survey recently released by the National Association of Home Builders. The MMS produces two separate indices. The Multifamily Production Index remained even at 49, while the Multifamily Vacancy Index also remained even with a reading of 40. The MPI measures builder and developer sentiment about current conditions in the apartment and condo market on a scale of 0 to 100. The index and all of its components are scaled so that a number below 50 indicates that more respondents report conditions are getting worse than report conditions are improving. The MPI is a weighted average of three key elements of the multifamily housing market: construction of low-rent units — apartments that are supported by low-income tax credits or other government subsidy programs; market-rate rental units — apartments that are built to be rented at the price the market will hold; and for-sale units — condominiums. The component measuring low-rent units increased two points to 53, the component measuring market rate rental units rose six points to 50 and the component measuring for-sale units dropped four points to 46. The MVI measures the multifamily housing industry’s perception of vacancies in existing apartments. It is a weighted average of current occupancy indexes for class A, B, and C multifamily units, and can vary from 0 to 100, where a number under 50 indicates more property managers believe vacancies are decreasing than increasing. With a reading of 40, the MVI has remained unchanged for the past three quarters and well under 50, indicating vacancies are improving. “Demand for apartments has been strong for the past several months, especially for apartments that are more affordably priced,” said Barry Kahn, president of Hetting-Kahn Holdings in Houston and chairman of NAHB’s Multifamily Council. “We are seeing an increased need for affordable housing in most markets around the country.” “Favorable weather conditions and high rates of production contributed to a positive outlook among multifamily developers in the fourth quarter,” said NAHB Chief Economist Robert Dietz. “Sentiment would be higher, but it is being constrained by emerging concerns over housing policies enacted in certain parts of the country, especially proposed rent control policies.”

Regional breakdown The Northeast PHSI rose 1.3% to 92.9 in January, 1.2% higher than a year ago. In the Midwest the index increased 7.3% to 105.3 last month, 6.5% higher than in January 2019. Pending home sales in the South grew 8.7% to an index of 129.4 in January, a 7.1% increase from January 2019. The index in the West declined 1.1% in January 2020 to 92.6, still a jump of 5.5% from a year ago.

557,000 pace. “The housing recovery continues, as single-family housing starts have surpassed 1 million for the second consecutive month and multifamily production has been running above 500,000 for the same period,” Mon said. “Meanwhile, builder confidence remains solid as demand continues to pick up.” “While the solid pace for residential construction continues, favorable weather conditions may have accelerated production in the winter months,” said Danushka Nanayakkara-Skillington, NAHB’s assistant vice president of forecasting and analysis. “At the same time, the growth in permits is a harbinger that the market will continue to move forward in the coming months even as builders grapple with supply-side issues like excessive regulations, labor shortages and rising material costs.” Regionally in January combined single- and multifamily housing production increased 31.9% in the Northeast and 1.2% in the West. Starts fell 25.9% in the Midwest and 5.4% in the South. Overall permits increased 9.2% to a 1.55 million unit annualized rate in January. This is the highest level since March 2007. Single-family permits increased 6.4% to a 987,000 rate while multifamily permits increased 14.6% to a 564,000 pace. Looking at regional permit data, permits are 34.6% higher in the Northeast, 8.2% higher in the Midwest, 8% higher in the South and 3.1% higher in the West.

Sales

for seasonal effects, the January reading of 764,000 units is the number of homes that would sell if this pace continued for the next 12 months. Inventory fell to a 5.1 months’ supply, with 324,000 new single-family homes for sale, 6.6% lower than January 2019. Of that total, just 76,000 are completed, ready to occupy. The median sales price was $348,200. The median price of a new home sale a year earlier was $305,400. Regionally, new home sales are 30.3% higher in the Midwest, 23.5% higher in the West and 4.8% higher in the Northeast. Sales are down 4.4% in the South.

Southaven fills needs in a relaxed style Associated Designs Home plan column

igh, arched windows echo the lines of the Southaven’s dramatic arched portico, giving this contemporary Mediterranean-style home an air of graceful elegance. Some of that elegance spills over into the interior, especially in the living room, dining room and owners’ suite. But the rest of the home is clearly designed to fill the needs of a busy, informal modern family. The spacious kitchen/ family room comfortably handles day-to-day living activities. An eating bar long enough to accommodate five or six stools partially separates the two areas. Range and oven are located in a large work island that adds counter space and a step-in pantry increases storage capacity. A sunny bayed nook faces the rear, providing an ideal vantage point for keeping an eye on a backyard pool, if the owners so desire. The long wrap-around

screened porch is accessible from both the family room and the nook. Ceilings in the entry and family room are a lofty two stories high, while 12-foot ceilings enhance the feeling of spaciousness in the living room and dining room. Columns support a high plant shelf that defines the two areas. On the second level an open balcony spans the passageway between entry and family room, offering overlooks in both directions.

Features in the Southaven’s sumptuous owners’ suite include a bayed sitting area, huge walk-in closet, enclosed water closet, dual vanity and a tub brightened by glass blocks. Two additional bedrooms and a guest suite with a private bath are upstairs. Associated Designs is the original source for the Southaven 11-038.

NAR REPORT

Minority homeownership rates continue to lag behind national average Troy Green National Association of Realtors WASHINGTON, D.C. — The United States homeownership rate has recently seen a rebound to 65.1% in the fourth quarter of 2019 from a low of 62.9% in the second quarter of 2016. While the increase in the overall homeownership rate is encouraging, there continues to be a significant racial homeownership gap in America that needs to be addressed. The ownership rate for non-Hispanic white Americans has been consistently above 71% from 2016 to 2019. In the same period, the homeownership rate for black Americans has been 30 percentage points less — above 41%. For Hispanic Americans, the homeownership rate has held above 45% and for Asian Americans it has been above 53% over the same time period. The National Association of Realtors recently released its Snapshot of Race & Home Buying in America report. This report examines the homeownership rate among each race in 2018 using American Community Survey data by state. The report also examines the change in the homeownership rate among AfricanAmericans from 2008 to 2018 using American Community Survey data. Finally, using the Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers data from

2019, the report looks into the characteristics of who purchases homes, why they purchase, what they purchase and the financial background for buyers based on race. View NAR’s Snapshot of Race & Home Buying in America report at nar. realtor/research-andstatistics/researchreports/a-snapshot-ofrace-and-homebuyingin-america. Last month NAR announced the passage

of a new Fair Housing Action Plan designed to ensure America’s 1.4 million Realtors are doing everything possible to protect the rights of people of all backgrounds to purchase, own and transfer ownership of property in America. Learn more about NAR’s ACT Plan ± Accountability, Culture Change and Training — by visiting nar.realtor/fair-housing/newfair-housing-actionplan.
